- Ramulus is a Maximal in the Beast Wars and Universe portion of the Generation 1 continuity

Ramulus came online on prehistoric Earth, only to find that Optimus Primal and his crew had already returned to Cybertron, stranding him there alone. Since then he's been an insufferable, snarky crank with a huge chip on his shoulder. He's as rough and tough in battle as his attitude suggests, which does make him a good bot to have around ... if you can stand his relentless rudeness.
Vanadium alloy razor blades are mounted on each of his wrists, and he carries a modified high-yield tachyon gun on his arm, which he affectionately refers to as his "Slagmaker cannon." During his time spent alone on Earth, his superior internal navigation systems were honed, improving his already-impressive abilities as a scout. His fractured spark crystal can periodically shoot ion pulses across his body, shutting down vital circuits.
Fiction
Universe: Featuring the Wreckers
When awoken from his stasis pod, he was furious that Optimus Primal had left him and the other protoforms behind. He joined Primal Prime, Tigatron, and Airazor in their battle against the undead Tarantulas on prehistoric Earth. Following that conflict, Ramulus ventured home to Cybertron and became a Wrecker. The rag-tag group set off in an Autobot shuttle, headed toward a set of coordinates that the Oracle planted in Primal Prime's head. Ramulus played a secondary role in the ensuing adventure.
Ramulus presents a brash and sarcastic personality, backed up by his awesome weapons and powerful beast mode. He is, however, a brave and loyal Maximal.
(Ramulus appeared green and tan instead of the toy's red and gray for quite a while. During the ride on the Autobot shuttle, Arcee used the healing power of her spark to keep Fractyl alive. Ramulus' close proximity to this healing process caused his colors to change. He now resembled his toy.)
Universe
Beast Wars
Razorbeast was ordered by Magmatron to wake the remaining stasis pods on prehistoric Earth as Predacons. Thankfully for Ramulus, Razorbeast was working undercover, and inserted a viral code into the protoform-awakening process. This virus caused many of the protoforms to retain their Maximal status. This included Ramulus, who was among the first to join up with Razorbeast. The Maximals thwarted Magmatron's plans to conquer Cybertron, but they were now stranded on ancient Earth.
